I was trying really hard to have the 2017 video complete in time for today's parade, since LGPer Sigwolf was kind enough to play my 2016 video on the ChromeCast at last year's parade. Unfortunately, it wasn't meant to be. I was up all night last night getting it done, but the extra time it took to convert to .mp4, then upload to YouTube, I wouldn't have made it to the parade in time to have a decent spot.

But it's done and I think it turned out well. It's a little longer this year, totaling 43:57. My only gripe about it is that the Pens Radio Network took a commercial break while the Conn Smythe and Stanley Cup were being presented! Someone on the radio side needs to be fired! So I don't have Lange and Bourquie's commentary for the presentations, and inexplicably, they went into a recap while the Cup was being passed around. So I had to get a little creative in piecing sound bytes together.

Thanks again to everyone here on LGP.com for the kind words, the requests for a 2017 edition, and the "I'm looking forward to its," both in this forum and by private messages. Hope you all enjoy! And yes, I will upload a "No Music version" as soon as time permits.

Thanks, Sig. I wish I could've had those done yesterday for use at the Point, assuming you were on the Chromecast again. The NHL Highlight videos that were played were actually the source for most of the video I used.

I'm still kicking myself for not having seen my video being played last year. I watched the parade from the garage on The Boulevard, then made my way to the stage, then when the festivities closed, my wife and I started hunting down our daughter. I about went bananas when you told me you played it.
